Answer 2

There is an allowable amount of puss in milk.  You can look it up on the USDA's website.  My brother worked at a bottling plant and told me that the milk was placed in spinners and he saw blood and puss coming out.  Unfortunately they can't get it all.  Best to not eat or drink dairy products.

Answer 3

Gross

Answer 4

puss is something else... it isn't in milk

it's in....between your legs

Answer 5

Its a mixture of dead cells and bodily fluids that forms around an infection, and no, it's not in milk despite the next 20 people who are going to tell you it is because they have an anti-milk agenda.

Each cow is checked before milking for any signs of infection.  If she is found to be sick, she's milked and the milk is thrown down the drain.  She is then treated for the infection (where the antibiotics come from) then quarantined out of the milking population for the duration specified by the veterinarian.

Of course, thinking that dairy farmers actually know what they are doing is too crazy for some people to comprehend so they'd rather go with wild conjecture that dairymen are really just out there to "get you" with antibiotics, hormones, and pus-filled milk.  Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.  Every industry loves tearing themselves down with shoddy quality control and a total lack of good business practices.  It's a proven, successful business model.

Sheesh.

I think I should also add, do you know how many bugs are in ketchup?  Do you know how much worm guts are in apple  juice?  Do you know how much bird c**p is in bagged spinach?  The thought that any ag product is somehow "pure" or sterile is just naive.

Answer 6

Its PUS, and its a collection of infected bacteria-the green stuff like you would see in a pimple.  Yes, its in commercial milk, along with blood, urine, f***s (p**p) antibiotics, steroids, growth hormones, and other nasty stuff-same as is found in commercial meat and other dairy products.  The reason commercial milk is pasturized is to kill off any of the harmful effects of the bacteria and other garbage in the milk.  One reason they started marketing chocolate milk, is that the chocolate disguises the red tinge that blood leaves in bad milk.  Just another way to produce stuff for the masses.  Thats why I drink only raw, organic milk from my pampered cow.  No way would I drink the stuff you get in a supermarket.  The high heat used to pasturize the milk kills off any nutritional value, so they add "nutrients" back in artificially-which is why milk is labeled as "vitamin d milk" .  That vitamin D is actually a steroid.  Also, the pasturization kills off all of the natural enzymes in milk, which is why many people are lactose intollerant.  Even the most milk allergic people can usually do well on raw milk.  I am highly allergic to commercial dairy, but I thrive on the raw stuff.

Answer 7

Pus is a mixture of dead white blood cells (the ones that fight infection), dead bacteria, and other cells.  It's a thick white fluid that often seeps from severely infected areas.

I'm sure dairy "farmers" don't have time to check every cow before she's milked.  And even if they do, nasty stuff is going to get into the milk.  I heard one dairy industrialist claim a cow with mastitis was just "well-endowed."

Answer 8

Yes, a certain amount of pus is allowed in milk.  It is killed off during the pasteurization process.

Milk from non-rBST cows has less pus, so if you're concerned, get milk that is labeled "from cows not treated with artificial growth hormones".

Answer 9

It's pus, dear and listen to green.  They have actual proof to back up what they say.  It's not anti-milk propaganda.  All milk has pus and blood in it...

Google pus and milk on google. and you will see.

Got pus?
